[cool]Went out early a.m. just south of 33 hole. Caught three smallmouth bass 2lb,1lb.,and a dink. Also got two largemouth bass, both dinks. Baits used were zara spook puppy(2),gulp minow grub(2), and a rattle trap. I didn't see any boils. Was hoping to cash in on some stripers like BaySport but no go. Sorry no pics; digital camera took a dump.

Sounds like a great day on the water! Love those zara spook puppies, lots of success with them. Used rattle traps many times near dark to attract stripers. Good report!

[cool]Thanks BaySport. I can always rely on the rattletrap. My buddy in Hesperia has been killing them with the zara puppy on lake silverwood; one that I left in his truck!

[cool]Thanks Whizzle. I have read your reports on the bass you got and decided to target them when the stripers weren't cooperating.

Good to hear the striper fishing has picked up there. I used to go camping and fishing at Silverwood all the time. No comparison to Mead though. I have to admit, however, that the campgrounds are better at Silverwood than Mead.

Best regards,
